Moving, gripping, beautifully written and hard to put down! I loved it! ❤️❤️Love and Other Lost Things: A totally heartbreaking page-turner grabbed my attention from the very first page! I was fully invested in this book as I went on a roller coaster ride of emotions while reading. I found this book to be a beautiful love story that examines different forms of love. There is falling in love, loving your child, loving your parent and even learning to love yourself in this book. This book tackles many difficult subjects with grace and care. Love and Other Lost Things: A totally heartbreaking page-turner is a captivating, heart wrenching and moving second chance romance that had me rooting for the characters, crying for them, worrying for them and cheering for them.
Jane McCaffrey left town after high school and thought she would never return. But after her father’s death, she returned and was reunited with her mother but also with Nik, her first love. The attraction is still there but Jane has secrets ranging from why she left town to how she got the fresh bruise on her cheek….
Whew! This moving book had me feeling all kinds of emotions. I was glued to the pages and did not want to put this book down. As I mentioned, this book does touch on some difficult subjects, including domestic violence, but they are all handled with care. I adored both Jane and Nik and was rooting for them the entire book. I found this book to be well thought out and engaging. This book also touches on motherhood, friendship, love, resiliency, abuse, trauma, music, trust, and starting over.
This is the second book which I have read by Melissa Wiesner. The first being It All Comes Back to You which has heart and soul. If you have not read that book, I highly recommend it as well.
Moving, beautifully written, hard to put down and gripping. Highly Recommend!
